"Pe le pa la" the Year of Rat finally arrived. When the clock click at 12am on Feb 6, the entire street in my residential area was so ready for the New Year. The whole street was filled with firecracker and firework and it really lighten the new year mood. I was standing outside my house and watched the beautiful sky colour with stars and joyful noise (from the firecracker). My brother was excited as he finally could light the firecracker legally in Brunei.
